Excellent job!

really ?! Thanks !

It's actually one of the scenes we've been needing for quite a lot of time. But as a frequency nutjob, I understood that you might need to use a high frequency, but what for? The machine looks really simple on the mechanical side (I didn't find any mechanisms anyways). Particles would be a nice addition (spawn long boxes for excess material, or maybe different polygons with a slight curve?) but seeing how the scene goes already it will probably be a really bad idea. Also you could make it mill with Kilinich's Laser Manipulator if you play with thyme a bit (on his scene he melts a block of ice)

For the milling head you can make 3 or 4 pictures of different states of it and use them for the spinning effect

But seriously, what is the intensive part of the scene?? i'm really curious

thanks a lot!
 
This is not really the mechanics, the problem ..
The reason why the frequency is so high is due to the poor "precision", (without reproach), from algodoo to 60Hz. If I keep this precision, then kinds of "uncontrollable vibrations" will be perceptible and the fast speeds will jerky. I would try on my next scene to lower all the constraints and to improve the refreshment.
